Alledgedly ADSL will appear at my local exchange as if by magic
sometime in May, which is good news, second good bit of news is that
the company I work for will have have a solution to access the
corporate network via ADSL in June if I use a connection I setup or
September if I wait for them to put the job out to tender accross
Europe. this leads me to the following list of questions / options.

Being that I like the concept of work picking up the tab for my
private use ADSL subscription this leads me to the following list of
questions / options.

1.) If I wish to host a website (private use) do I need a static IP
address?

2.) I assume the company will provide me the hardware to connect my
WORK PC to the ADSL line, is it possible to add a Vigor or something
like that to the line in parallel? (I'm guessing not but thought i'd
ask)

3.) Is there any reason why I couldn't connect the work PC to my home
LAN and use the gateway from the LAN, all the software needs is an
interent connection to access the office network (Nortel VPN
software)?

4.) Would this affect the rest of my LAN in any Way?

5.) The above assumes I change the domain of my home network to be
the same as work (not a huge issue) but is there a way to do it
without changing?

That's it for now thanks

Paul
